Solar panel cleaning in Double Bay is mostly a salt problem. The village sits close to the water, and the harbour adds its salt tax to every roof behind it. That salt binds a fine grime to the glass, and on the rendered villas and courtyard homes here it settles in unevenly, worse on the shaded pitches where the mould from the courtyard walls drifts up.
A filmed panel still runs, it just runs poorer, and you pay the difference on the bill rather than seeing it on the roof. We clean with deionised water and soft brushes, no pressure anywhere near the seals, so nothing that keeps the water out gets forced open. The glass dries without spotting and the yield comes back. Every panel is photographed against the checklist when we finish.

Every panel checked against the list before we call it done. Here is the finish it is done to.
Soft brush and pure water only. No film, no streaking, glass left clear to the edge.
Lifted off, not smeared. Baked-on spots worked until the glass is clean, never scraped.
Rinsed with de-ionised water so it dries spot-free. No mineral marks left behind.
Grime cleared from the aluminium seams where dust packs in and holds moisture.
Leaf litter and debris cleared from the gaps so water and air move as they should.
Checked for shading build-up. Corners cleaned so no cell sits in the shade of its own dirt.
None. No detergents, no acids. Nothing that voids a panel warranty or films the glass.
Every array photographed against the checklist at close. Cracks or faults flagged, not touched.

“Couldn’t fault them”
Had the windows and the driveway done. Turned up right on 8, finished before lunch, and the driveway honestly looks brand new. Same guy came back for the gutters last month and remembered our dog’s name. Couldn’t fault them.
“Should’ve done it years ago”
They sent me photos of what came out of our gutters. Revolting. Glad it’s gone. Lovely guys too.
“Came out after the storm”
We’re on their monthly plan. After that big blow in June they were out two days later and sorted everything without us having to chase. Worth it for that alone.
“Honest, which is rare”
Our sandstone wall had gone black and I’d assumed it was ruined. It’s come up beautifully. There was one damp patch he said needed a stone specialist rather than pretending he could fix it, which I appreciated. On time, tidy, very fair on price.
“Neighbours all asked who did it”
Windows are unreal. Two of the neighbours came over to ask who did them before the van had even left the street. Booking was easy and they text you when they’re on the way.
“10/10”
Got the whole outside done before we hosted Christmas. Mum asked if we’d had the place repainted. Showed up when they said, price was exactly what they quoted.
Yes. We work the streets behind the village most weeks, William St and Ocean Ave among them. The rendered villas and courtyard homes here are regular territory for panel cleaning.
Put your address into the instant quote and a firm, bookable price comes back in about 60 seconds. Nobody comes out to look first, and the price holds unless your roof is materially different to what you told us.
The harbour salt tax. This close to the water, salt settles on the glass and grips the grime, and shaded pitches near the courtyard walls hold it longest. A clean once a year keeps the yield where it should be.
One crew, one visit. Book a single job or hand us the whole exterior.
Inside and out, tracks and screens. The squeegee line you can see from the street.
Render, brick and weatherboard brought back without blasting a thing. Ten years of grey, gone by lunch.
Cleared, flushed and photographed. The before you never wanted to see, and the after you will.
Pressure cleaned back to the day they were poured. Sealing available.
Salt and lichen lifted, the stone left to breathe. Heritage stone, done properly.
Moss, lichen and mould lifted off tiles and Colorbond. Soft washed, never blasted.
Timber, Colorbond and rendered fences washed back. The street side done first.
Tell us the address and what the street sees. The same person who would do the job gets back to you, not a call-centre.
